The Simple Truths Silver Mine

Cable television is not for young single educated male liberals.  It is for troglodytes.

[Joe Republic]

We can't do anything without consensus and this is literally the one thing that even Joe Republic and Inks agree on. That doesn't happen very often

[Joe Republic]

Why do socks admit they are socks?

Because they want to gloat that they were "smart" enough to not get caught.  Actually, what it really means if you create a sock that isn't caught is that you were either boring enough that no one cared or so unoriginal and uninspired in your trolling no one could tell if you were a new idiot or the old banned idiot.

Didn't know you were a Hillary fanboy, Lief. Color me surprised.

You know the biggest irony? How pro-Obama he was in 2008.

This shouldn't really be all that shocking.  The only difference between Obama and Hillary was style, not substance.  Their platforms were basically identical.

Thank God Opebo has been banned, his gloating would have been unbearable.

opebo being banned and Simfan being unbanned is shaping up to be a pretty good trade, at least as far as Thailand-related threads are concerned. With Simfan you get a generally similar slant of analysis to opebo's without the gloating, glibness, or obsession with prostitution.

Maybe our beloved Senators could hush up about an NFL team's name and worry more about the federal government honoring Andrew Jackson by placing him on our national currency. What a joke.

[Joe Republic]

I don't know who is worse, Puckett, the Republicans who bribed him, or the hacks on this forum cheering blatant bribery.

[Joe Republic]

Honestly, it boggles my mind that most of the blue avatars on this site are willing to identify as Republicans. When you have to apologize for your party as much as you do, why do you even bother?

[Joe Republic]

Fine. Hide behind your religion like the rest of your Bible Belt brethren in Oklahoma, Arkansas, and elsewhere.

It goes miles in explaining why you're all overweight, underemployed and more prone to everything from diabetes to divorce.

[Joe Republic]

Yes, gays are less likely to indulge in religious nutterism, having been the victims of it. People raised without religion are going to be much better off. So many of the tykes raised by heteros are subjected to the psychological torture of willful ignorance and threats of eternal damnation. It's amazing they turn out as well as they do.

[Joe Republic]

^ What the hell is that even supposed to be?


Anyway,

Pbrower's maps make way more sense if you're messed up on cat drugs.

[Joe Republic]

Tweed says terrible things but it's OK because he cloaks everything in post-modernist depressive sarcasm.  True Federalist says terrible things but it's OK because he cloaks everything in legalistic pedantry and the tactic of playing dumb.   

[Joe Republic]

Questions probably don't count as 'truths', but it's a rhetorical one, so I say it counts:

I wish people would dress in suits and hats regularly again, so guess.

Why is everyone on this site so weird?

[Joe Republic]

Oh god, he's back.

[Joe Republic]

I'm pretty sure Karl Marx himself would be tarred and feathered as a "neoliberal sellout" the second he deviated from the glorious plan on some minor and irrelevant issue.

The same would apply to any True Libertarian example and their followers, too.

[Joe Republic]

What right does BRTD have to define a bad thread?

Edit:  Reposted to the Silver Mine only 37 seconds later, such is its truthfulness.  You're doing much better these days, Sanchez.

[Joe Republic]

I'm too lazy

[Joe Republic]

It's been a few months since the last mass shooting, so guns are no longer a problem in society and we can go back to clinging to them.

[Joe Republic]

Nathan, do you search for any uses of the word 'religion' used since the last time you logged on?  Just curious.

[Joe Republic]

What a coincidence!  Though in my case what comes across my radar it isn't always simplistic - often the polar opposite in fact - but always, always intolerably smug.
